A seedy dance class in suburban St Kilda in the early sixties is somewhat unsettled by the advent of eighteen year old 'femme fatale' Betty, who fancies herself as a ballerina and sees Bob Dylan as the voice of her generation.
Accomplished but flawed dance teacher Bob O'Brien strives to see his various charges - of varying levels of talent - achieve their positive potential, but faithful friends, pianist Trevor and landlady Marion are more concerned about the chance of his imminent breakdown.
Breakdown becomes triumphant breakthrough for Bob and his students, but not before things reach a disturbing climax. As Dylan might have said, "The times they are a-blowin' in the wind".

Do you love Sesame Street? Ever wanted to stick your hand up a puppet? Ever wanted to learn the lessons of life from lovable furry characters? Want to know how a monster does “it”? You’re in luck…
The Broadway musical Avenue Q comes to the Roleystone Theatre stage in November, and we are proud to announce auditions will take place on the weekend of 09-10th June 2012.
We are looking to cast 12-17 actors in three human roles and the numerous puppet roles in this unique and exciting project. No prior experience working with puppets is necessary, but a high tolerance for fur is probably helpful!
Auditionees should prepare one character song, preferably in an American accent, for the first round of the audition. You will also be asked to learn a short set piece which will be provided when you book your audition, and will need to be delivered in an appropriate “puppet” voice. Auditionees for some roles have additional requirements. Auditionees must be 18yrs+
Further details of requirements and audition session times are included below. To book your auditions, please email the Director (Lorna Mackie) via lorna@htth.com.au or phone 0413031509 (email preferred).
We look forward to seeing you at the auditions!
